Where did the month of September go? The last thing I remember it was Labor Day and I was camping with some friends and family. Wait that was my last post!

Since my last post it's been all about getting ready for our club's first field trial and hunt test. Planning, planning and more planning followed by the event and that meant putting all of the plans to work. For the most part all the planning came together but it was from the hard work of a bunch of club members. It was great to be around such great dog people for 5 plus days. We had participants from CO, MT, NE, KS, AR, CA and NH. All of them were great to be around and great to learn from.

After months of planning the trial came and went but the memories stayed.

"Every bird I bag is a beautiful, poignant thing. Every bird that my dog brings to my hand is a gift, a symbol of the communication and cooperation that flows between hunting partners of different species." - Charles Fergus
